I am not asking for your sympathy but do you ever wonder why does your life sucks even though you manage to smile through whatever obstacles your facing. I go out with friends, volunteer, and usually go with the flow. I am the only child in the family, at times it gets so hard but I told myself I'm going to make it through because I believe in myself I can. When I have problems and there's nobody to turn to, I just keep it in myself and shut myself out from others. You can't always rely on somebody to be there when you needed them and I don't expect them to be. I taught myself to give and expect nothing back. I taught myself to love myself first before you love someone else. I taught myself to forgive and take chances. I told myself to enjoy life and cherish the moments, honestly life sucks and I'm not going to lie about it. I told myself to be confident and be happy with what I have. I did not have a good childhood, I was bully for my looks and got into many fights. My love life sucks too, I'm better off alone and lonely in my life. I told myself I don't need a guy to be happy but when it comes to being in a relationship, emotions are involved. You can't help how you feel and all of a sudden, for the littlest or biggest mistakes, you lose the person. I just don't want to deal with anything and sometimes I just want to give up everything I had in life even though I'm holding on. I'm tired of it even though I never complain to anyone of how my life sucks. I just smile and say it's good. Well, it's part of life and it goes on. Who is feeling me?

Wow. We've very similar. ...but you haven't figured this out about yourself.

You're doing everything right. ...but you're not letting your emotions out.

Its like, you're afraid to show any emotion because it either shows weakness or it means you're "letting your guard down". Its' not like that. I mean, gosh, I just wrote a page and a half (seemingly-I had to fill up the sources part because it didn't fit) answer to a 13-year-old girl who was just going through adolescence...I mean, just like I was. Its 3am here. I'm dying. >.<; I DIGRESS-

Regardless, you need to just let it out. Go in a room and scream, cry, everything all at once, cry for everything and everyone that ever hurt you. ...but when you're done, sitting on a sofa alone, curled up, leaning on the arm-rest, snuffling, think this...

You're done. You've let it all out. You're heart is clear. Let it all go.

If you dwell on it and hold it deep and close within, it will burn and rot away inside you until it finally rears its ugly head and kills you.

Guess what. You're just staring at the wall, wondering why you were upset. You know why, but...it shouldn't matter anymore. IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYMORE.

You need to live in the present, because if you look at the past, you'll kill yourself. Its painful.

If you keep a healthier outlook on life, you'll feel so much better. You say you're "go with the flow", but you're really just everyone's doormat. STEP UP!! Don't let them walk on you! You can be strong and confident, go with the flow...and be YOU!!! -WITHOUT getting trampled upon.

You clobbered together all your emotions all these years, and you're leaving yourself afraid to feel, love, or cry. You can't feel sad, you can't feel good. You feel bitter.

Let it go. Live in the NOW. Forget then. This is you. Be a new you.

Yes, all of that happened. Yes, its still a part of YOU. However, there's a part of you that was covered up long ago after years of swallowing your pride and emotions. You don't have to be emotional; please, don't be ridiculous, but let the old ones go, let the old anger flow, let the tears leave you.

You'll feel comfortable and at ease. It will feel peaceful. ..and when you're at ease with yourself...people can sense that.

You will no longer stress about relationships and messing them up with "the littlest or biggest mistakes". You need to complain. Complain to yourself. Carry on until you can't see straight and you have a brain-bashing migraine. Sleep. Repeat as necessary.

Life doesn't go on. Life happens again and again...its remembering to appreciate it.

-And you know what? You *don't* need someone to talk to always...but it helps. You can always talk to me-

I did all of the above and I am a cheerful person. I try to live in the moment not looking too far ahead or behind. The last thing you need is a guy when you are not mentally healthy. You'll attract nut-cases. Good luck!

You are going to have to learn to appreciate what people want to hear better.

Ask Santa for a puppy for Christmas

Dogs have friends because they wag their tails, not their tongues

I'm glad that I actually read all of that.

You seem like you're very aware of your emotions, that's an AWESOME thing when your life sucks. Trust me I know....

The best thing that you can do about bad situations in your life is to accept that you have NO control over them, which I see you've already done. Then you just have to go on and remain positive. It's all about the energy that you put out, what you give is what you get.

In this over populated world, with all it's problems, I find it odd that suicide is so taboo. If a person lives for example 50 years or more, and finds life intolerable, whats so wrong with deciding when to end their own life?

The damage is permanent. People considering it are not seeing other options, often they see only the bad things in his/her life. If one is willing to forego everything in his/her life to persue death, then why not just forego everything for a new life?
I did this, left everything behind and moved to a place far away from everyone and life did become worth while, the pain went away and now problems that come my way are tolerable. I think my family made me sick.

I understand what some people say about it being selfish because it would affect other people in their lives, but at the same time, isn't selfish of them to want him/her to continue to bear a miserable existence simply because they don't want to be sad they're dead? Where I do think that suicide is extreme (it's something you obviously can't take back) , and in most cases, if a person wants to work hard and get help they can most likely get things better, but in extreme cases (such as a case like Will Smith's character in Seven Pounds, or Adam Sandler in Reign Over Me) major life events have caused irrevocable damage to a person's mind, heart, and I think ultimately their soul, and in that situation, if a person decides they want to take their own life, perhaps they should be given that right to do so, without being called crazy or selfish.

Now if a guy is just depressed because a girl broke up with him and decides that's worth killing yourself, then no, that's stupid, it's just a girl. Not like she was your wife and she died or anything. Or a guy who'd rather kill himself then clean himself from drugs. That's selfish.

I will say I would never encourage anyone to do this, and if you're asking this question because you are considering it, then I suggest to find help and try hard to make it better first, because chances are it would. I would respond to any e-mails if needed.

I guess...I guess suicide means you're not appreciating the life that was given to you...I guess it means you're not looking for every way to honor opportunities other people wish they had. To me, personally, it's something familiar, a feeling I've felt, but, I think it's wrong because it's murder. Any way you put it, it's murder.

It's incredibly selfish. No matter what, that person's life, in some way, effects someone else. So the taking of it would effect the person's life too. So incredibly selfish. Also...in Seven Pounds...Will Smith did not want to commit suicide because he was unhappy. It was the only way to save the girl. I'm sorry for the spoiler everyone. But seriously...suicide is always, no matter what, selfish. There ARE other ways. Severely depressed people are far less willing to commit suicide than regularly sad people. So...if they are able to lift their moods from depressed to just sad...they can continue.

because they leave behind people who love them! My friend committed suicide when she was 2 weeks shy of her 15th birthday! She was depressed about her unfortunate life. The problem with that is that it was all fixable!! Usually people who kill themselves are going through a rough period that would have eventually passed if they hadn't decided to kill themselves. Maybe seeing a friend in a coffin would change your mind.

Aside from it being illegal, or if you don't do it right, you'll get sent to a psych ward....some people believe in God, and the Bible, and it says you shouldn't take your life.

Besides that, it makes people that want to do that, look weak. There's many other people out there going through problems, and toughing it out seems to be the best option.

how many others would it effect? some parent could go crazy kill people or friends... and so many horrible things can happen when someone or anyone loses someone.

its all a chance and why risk it?

plus if life is only for so long why can't they tough it out anyway? (though that's all a matter of opinion of course)

because many consider suicide murder
it's like talking a man's life

nothing for them .. it jsut sucks for the rest of us who have to go through life with one less passenger on this crazy spaceship through the vastness of time and space

because other people will be hurt by it

Its kind of illegal to kill yourself. Youll get in trouble with the popo.

Received- underwear the said No No No but with the lights turned out is read Yes Yes Yes

Given- several tire gauges bought late Christmas Eve at a gas station. The stores were closed.

Recieved: One year I recieved a used, yes, used, housecoat from my grandmother-in-law.....pretty.

Two years ago I recieved a pre-scratched lottery ticket valuing $1.

Given: When I was 6 I purchased (from the Goodwill) a Battleship game for my older brothers. Half of the pegs were missing.

Given? Heaven only knows. When I was a little kid I always picked out $1 and $2 presents for all my relatives, and I am sure many of them must have been very odd even though I don't remember them all. For instance, I got my cousin a rubber severed hand from an after-Halloween sale once because I thought it was incredibly hilarious. I no longer remember why.

Received...hmm...well, a set of really cheap, ugly makeup cases is the only thing I can think of. I really think I've given more tacky stuff than I've gotten.

Received - underwear in my stocking from my Grandmother.

Given - nothing. I hate it when I am too broke to buy gifts, and I've been there before.

My grandparents keep giving me stationery for Hanukkah. I don't think they've been tipped off to the existence of Facebook.

I miss my whole old neighboorhood and neighbors so much. I had the best childhood.

What do you miss most?

Thanks!
<3 callie

i miss playing with my neightborhood kids
(michael, sarah, brian, peter, matt, jorden, and kevin)
we would all play kickball in my backyard, and me and my best friened when i was little would hang out every day LITERALLY
now, i watch home videos and get really depressed. like i wish i could go back in time and just cherish that moment and realize how much fun i was having
ALSO lol, i miss being able to buy little toys and go to toys R us without people staring at me like i am a freak...because apparently 14 year olds arn't allowed in toys R us??
and i miss all the little TV shows like Rugrats, rocket power, pb&j, and hey arnold. they don't even show those shows anymore!!! its sad!!!
haha well 'cali' i gave you a long answer...ahheemmm....if you would like to pick me-your hackin best friend i may add-for best answer.....it would be VERY hackin appriciated?

The simple days of mediocrity. I remember those times where I would always spend time with my friends like go to the movies, mall, library, park, etc. and just hang out; family where we would always go out and eat at a restaurant. Sadly, I now focus on my studies (making sure I get good grades) and just practically sleep all the time. I now have to think about my future and work hard to make it in life, it always apparent that I make more time for school and less time for family. *Sigh*

Callie, that is a great question. Senator Hatch, would you like to answer that?

Well, as you all know, I was born in 1887. Sir, what was the question?

no responsibility...no exams...all your friends around you all the time cuz no-one had anything else better to do...no money problems...no pressure to look good...no freakin hangovers!

i also had a brilliant childhood!!!

I miss my old neighborhood and the ice cream trucks that used to pass by every week.. I also really miss having no fences and living in the suburbs, not the city..

I miss my back yard full with the swing sets and being by myself and going to the ice cream parlor every 2 nights with my daddy!

my family being together.

and my john deer tractor bike thing. that thing was awesome.

I miss life being nice and simple and without worries

Perhaps they feel a need for space, as if they're being a bit crowded by the people in their life. Or they could be having private issues that makes them refrain from talking to friends - they may want their alone time to gather thoughts or collect themselves after a difficult situation. If you did nothing to hurt that friend, I don't think they would limit communication directly with you. Think about your last encounter or if you offended them in any way. You never know how sensitive some people can be.

Best wishes and happy holidays.

There's a lot. It could be you or the friend. Maybe it's something you did. Maybe s/he's depressed/anti-social. Maybe it's the way you are that s/he doesn't like. Well, I would say communicate directly to find out the reason for the excommunication. Ask and find out what's going on.

True dream I had last night. I was wealthy by making such a doll, though some consumers were upset that Ken was made just proprtionately "average" in the wee-wee area. It was available high up on store shelves.

Analyze that dream.

I think your dream of inventing symbolizes your creativity and aspirations for wealth and success. The anatomically correct part relates to issues of commitment and pleasure. It signifies sexual energy, power and fertility. The fact that it was available high up on store shelves probably just meant you wanted it out of reach of small tykes. Maybe it's the protective parent in you.

I think it just means that you are going to get wealthy by some means. The ken doll was probably on your mind because you bought your daughter one for Christmas * or a barbie of some sort. As far as his penis size goes, perhaps you were pondering your manhood yesterday and your size was subconsciously on your mind and you dreamt of it later.

You like the cock.

sounds to me like you want to make gay me happy!

Would it be tacky if I asked how much she spent?

the fact she had to go out and buy it herself is already tacky, so why not continue the trend?

btw: lol @ u pretending to have a wife

Yes it would be tacky to ask her that. I am sorry to tell you but you sound cheap for the reason being she had to go and buy her own present. So I just wouldn't ask that if I were you I wouldn't want to seem even cheaper.

Ummm.... no. You can ask, but dont make her feel bad for spending alot. Maybe you shouldnt ask... because then she would think your thinking that.. let her know she deserves it no matter how much she spent!

she bought her own christmas present? :/ While it's inconsiderate that she doesn't tell you herself, yes, it would be tacky.

Very tacky indeed.

Depends on what she buys.

Why didn't you get her what she wanted? Or did she not tell you anything? Or are you even really married?

horribly tacky

I don't think so. You will find out anyway when you receive the Visa and Master Charge bills.

It kinda would be, but if it is over 200$ it is a little high.

Yes. It's Christmas, a time for GIVING.

YES! Not good at all.

Wow... sounds like someone needs a new wife

DUH!

'Scuse me?

hell yea

I need help trying to find which parts of the brain respond to emotions such as love, hate, calm, etc. I know several parts of the Brain can respond to just one emotion, but i just need a rough idea. I had been looking for a diagram to help, but I cant seem to find one.
Best answer gets my 10points. Please help. I would really appreciate it

Pretty cool link, it's a flash movie that takes you through the anatomical regions of the brain and talks about their functions:

http://www.learner.org/discoveringpsycho...

Your best bet would be to focus on the limbic system. I know the frontal lobe has a lot to do with personality (try looking up the case of Phineas Gage if you want an example) and organization...not so sure about emotions though.

Papez believed that the experience of emotion was primarily determined by the cingulate cortex and, secondly, by other cortical areas. Emotional expression was thought to be governed by the hypothalamus. The cingulate gyrus projects to the hippocampus, and the hippocampus projects to the hypothalamus by way of the bundle of axons called fornix. Hypothalamic impulses reach the cortex via relay in the anterior thlamic nuclei.
n 1937, the neuroanatomist James Papez would demonstrate that emotion is not a function of any specific brain center but of a circuit that involves four basic structures, interconnected through several nervous bundles : the hypothalamus with its mamillary bodies, the anterior thalamic nucleus, the cingulate gyrus and the hippocampus. This circuit (Papez circuit), acting in an harmonic fashion, is responsible for the central functions of emotion (affect), as well as for its peripheral expressions (symptoms).

More recently, Paul McLean, accepting the essential bases of Papez proposal, created the denomination limbic system and added new structures to circuit : the orbitofrontal and medialfrontal cortices (prefrontal area), the parahippocampal gyrus and important subcortical groupings like the amygdala, the medial thalamic nucleus, the septal area, prosencephalic basal nuclei (the most anterior area of the brain) and a few brainstem formations.

It is important to stress that all these structures interconnect intensively and none of them is the sole responsible for any specific emotional state. However, some contribute more than others to this or that kind of emotion.

The Amygdala, an almond shaped structure, deep inside the antero-inferior region of the temporal lobe, connects with the hippocampus, the septal nuclei, the prefrontal area and the medial dorsal nucleus of the thalamus. These connections make it possible for the amigdala to play its important role on the mediation and control of major affective activities like friendship, love and affection, on the expression of mood and, mainly, on fear, rage and aggression The amygdala, being the center for identification of danger, is fundamental for self preservation. When triggered, it gives rise to fear and anxiety which lead the animal into a stage of alertness, getting ready to flight or fight. Experimental destruction of both amygdalas (there are two of them, one in each hemisphere) tames the animal, which becomes sexually non-discriminative, deprived of affection and indifferent to danger. The electrical stimulus of these structures elicits crises of violent aggressivity. Humans with marked lesions of the amygdala, loose the affective meaning of the perception of an outside information, like the sight of a well known person. The subject knows, exactly, who the person is, but is not capable to decide whether he likes or dislikes him (or her).

The hippocampus is particularly involved with memory phenomena, specially with the formation of long-term memory (the one that, sometimes, lasts forever). When both hippocampi (right and left) are destroyed, nothing can be retained in the memory. The subject quickly forgets any recently received message. The intact hippocampus allows the animal to compare the conditions of a present threat with similar past experiences, thus enabling it to choose the best option, in order to guarantee its own survival.

The Fornix and Parahippocampal gyrusare important connecting pathways of the limbic system.

amygdala is the rage and anger portion of the brain

She thinks I am depressed and need to be on meds, but I don't need them, I am not depressed. Yeah I didn't have the greatest child hood. My dad picked on me alot and was never really there for me and really waswn't the best father, but that didnt make me depressed.She says I think the worst about myself and have no confidence. How do I make her change her mind?

Well this happen to my brother - Do you spend all your time in your room if so GET OUT MORE EVEN if your hanging with friends HANG with your mom ask your mom if she wants to go out some time just a girl night out or ask her questions like " I like your hair what you do with it ? " and if she had cancer and radioactive treat ment. and she has no hair scratch that lol. HOnestly talk to her

- hope i helped.

If you are of a certain age, usually it's around 14, you can't be forced to take meds for depression. There are some compelling reasons not to.

The best way to convince her you don't need them, if she's really pushing, is to work with a competent therapist. The therapist will help you to develop a plan, and you can check in with him or her, and then your mother will feel assured that your health is being attended to. If you really aren't depressed, the therapist will tell your mother and discharge you, and then you can adequately defend yourself against taking meds (because no one will prescribe them if you have no diagnosis).

Is your mom a doctor or something? That could complicate things, but you have the right to your own doctor, and an independent therapist with experience with adolescents could do that for you. Good luck.

Han tell your mom to email me we've talked enough for me to know your not depressed! Sure you have some concerns and are trying to work somethings out about your future but that comes being 17 and getting yourself ready for college and the responsibilities of adulthood.
I think you are an exceptional young woman and your mom should be very proud of you

YOU WONT HAVE TO . WHEN YOU TALK TO THE DOCTOR TELL HIM YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU NEED THEM, HE WON'T PUT YOU ON THEM UNLESS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE TAKING THEM

Sometimes when I ask misogynistic questions, I get "Why don't you turn gay" or something like that. I usually block people who do that.

I can be a misogynist at times, but I'm not gay and never will be and I'm not a womanizer at all, ever. Unlike non-misogynists to mess around on women and might become a deadbeat dad.

Do all people think all misogynists are gay or womanizers?

No not at all. It's just when you talk a lot of crap about women it just kind of makes sense if you don't like us so much and think men are so great you should be with them. That's all.

I'm just being honest.

Not all. Some are just psychiatrically or educationally challenged.

But a hatred of anything usually stems from some form of projected self hate, and it's usually a good guess that misogyny equates repressed hom0s3xuality.

PS: I don't block anyone, because nothing you could say can hurt me ~ I don't care enough about you or your friends. But feel free to block away, if you can't stand the heat in this kitchen. Many of your misognynistic buddies already have.

Cheers

I think they'd be better off gay, if they hate all women just on account of them not being men, it only makes sense.

Same for women who feel that extremely about men.

I don't believe they are gay, and don't believe can actually choose to be gay (I don't believe sexual preference is a choice) *but* I think they'd be happier if they were.

Being gay has absolutely nothing to do with hating women. I've never met a gay man who did. Homosexuality is about whom you love, not hate.

I have met a few misogynists in real life. They're not womanizers. They're just men of no real achievement or consequence who build themselves up by putting women down. Neither were they deadbeat dads.

At least you are admitting you're prejudice against women. Some people are and won't admit it. Admitting is the first step towards changing. Why do you hate women, is what I want to know. That's what a misogynist is: A person who hates women. What have I ever done to you (I'm a woman by the way)?

I don't really know.

Unlike misogynists( and misandrists), I've found most homosexuals to be very kind and endearing people.

I think they generally get portrayed that way because they prefer to be with someone of their own sex therefore making many believe they hate the opposite sex.

Not, not all misogynists are gay. But it must be *really* hard for misogynists to love any woman, since the entire basis of her gender is what misogynists hate.

I'd say many of them are very lonely, though.

my definition of a misogynist is a person who simply hates women and wouldnt mind hurting them, and sees them as worthless. most gays i know are not misogynists, and all their friends are female.

Um, no. I've actually met more Homosexual feminists than Homosexual anti-feminists. I think it's because feminist concentrate on gay rights a lot.

But, I dunno...it's difficult to be misogynistic without being a womanizer as well.

No, I know that some of them are inclined to concentrate on making a single lucky woman particularly unhappy. I know this because they post to YA to complain about it.

everybody knows that misogynists are closet cases.

Not at all. They could be a gay or a womanizer, but most likely their just morons. So....category #3 for you then?

Nope

What difference does it make?

The same reason people have to debate it. It doesn't change a thing but people just have to justify their opinion/position.

I know what you mean. Why even bother trying to explain ANYTHING to men? I mean, seriously, do men ever LISTEN (to continue, for your amusement, your use of generalization)? What part of "Women have been asking for help and have not been listened to for so long that it's clearly time to stop "explaining" a damn thing to men" is so difficult to comprehend? But, by giving the reasons we could learn as a society how to reduce the incidence of abortion. If 40% of all abortions are due to "The father does not want the pregnancy to continue", then we could address why so many men force their girlfriends and wives into abortions and why birth control wasn't used, what knowledge deficits are involved, and so on.

If another chunk of abortions is due to, say, failure of contraceptives, then maybe we could address more medically modern birth control approaches for both men and women. If another "excuse" women give for choosing abortion is rape or date rape or substance abuse or lack of education or poor pay or no universal child health insurance or a public school system going into the tank because voters, especially men, persistently vote down school funding and every measure that clearly would support families and quite possibly reduce the conditions and reasons why women choose to abort and not bring a child into this anti-child society, couldn't we maybe reduce the incidence of abortion?

Wouldn't it be more logical and rational to be "bothered" by reasons rather than just keep irrrationally blaming women for everything? Why try to explain anything to people who see this issue as being all about how evil women have taken men's entitlements away from them, their "right" to control and do with a woman's body as they want, to get her pregnant pre-DNA testing and deny accountability, to beat her or hold her as property to legally rape in marriage and even in divorce and to make all the decisions about her body for her as it was for women before feminism, or to men who grow bitter and disgruntled and tired of listening to women sound so reasonable?

Just leave it to women to lead us out of all that "blaming" and oppression level of Social Consciousness and to solve the tougher more complex problems that need to be rationally "explained" and solved in order to build strong prosperous stable communities. In the meantime, just always be aware of where your penis is, OK? That would REALLY help. We''ll take it from there. Now go play a video game or something masculine. Balls, maybe. Go play with a ball and don't trouble your handsome little head about all this nasty explaining and problem-solving and accountability scary girl stuff. Mommy's here. Mommy's always very near. Give me kisses! Mind wearing that fish net tank top, love? You know how studly you look in it. Yum. Yum. Next, you'll be asking about the Myth of Male Orgasm or something. lol.

In my experience women give reasons to try and justify themselves or convince themselves that they did the right thing, the whole while guilt is eating away at them.

The few reasons you'll hear that aren't because of that are medical ones, like an esotopic pregnancy.

Men and women give moral and ethical reasons for many philosophical debates. It's been around for a really long time, actually. I don't use religion as my moral compass, I use logic and ethics in order to define "right" and "wrong".

Because it helps people understand. There's a difference between a woman who uses abortion as birth control and woman who used it in order to not have a rapist's baby.

Because having an abortion is a very serious matter. My opinion is that few women would put themselves through that emotional and physical ordeal unless they had a reason for it.

It really isn't anyone's business but the person who had the procedure.

Women do NOT take abortion lightly, no matter what you've heard.

Because people keep trying to criticise them without knowing the situation so they feel they have to explain their choice. Which they shouldn't have to.

i don't know what my dream is about but i know my boyfriend, my dad, my little/big brothers are in it but i dont know what its all about but i wake up crying can anyone please help??? its happed more than once

In your walking life you are not a happy person ; but you keep all those sad feelings for yourself ; so when you are sleeping your subconscious is releasing a bit of this sadness

What's the feeling you have on waking? Great sadness? Fear?
You may be worrying about your family's health or wellbeing, about something that may happen to them. Or you may fear that you will lose their love in some way, or have lost their love already. It's difficult to be specific without details of the dream. It could be many other things.

most likely a nightmare , i used to get them very bad younger as a kid they were called night tremors i used to wake up crying ,eventually you will not get them anymore and youll feel much better

Wops, I don't know the answer, and I think I shouldn't...
But I know the solution, you need "Sexual Healing"...
Sirious....

i have had thiskind of dream when i was young about having an older sister, woke up checked the house, no older sister n started to cry?

and please answer mine if you can

maybe your scared to loose those people? .. try looking at a dream website that explains dreams.

Most theories posit that men become flashers because they want to affirm their masculinity. They are trying to get a reaction out of women, they want to know that they have some sort of power over women. This also means that flashers often have some resentment against women.

Flashers tend to be less social people. They want attention.

Some because they like being naked.
Some are vain about their bodies.
Some have issues..
Some do it to belittle women, make them uncomfortable.

Weirdos, agreed!

cos they are weirdos

Compassionate love is defined as having mutual respect, attachment, affection and trust, while passionate love is described as intense emotions, sexual attraction, and longing for union with one another. Well, my boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year, and we do respect and care for eachother a lot, and we are affectionate and intimate. However, we also have intense emotions and are quite sexually attracted to one another. It's a bit difficult for us to be apart. So my question is, which kind of love are we in, or are we in both?

both it seems

Is there such a thing as "Compassionate love". Compassionate means to feel sympathetic or feel ones pain or agony. For instance, Jane felt compassionate for her roommate who was failing all of her school finals.

I am not sure where you got all those descriptions but the one that fits true is what I just mentioned. Unless of course you feel sorry for your boyfriend and that turns you on to love him in a passionate way. I would say that it's possible that your intense emotions is just lust not true love. You sound very young, and I am wondering if you are only projecting what your boyfriend feels. You can't have both compassion and passion unless you feel sorry for him, which would make you think that you feel passionate towards him.

both. theres no rule saying you cant be.

I bet $200 that no women have the guts to kick me in the nuts without feeling bad about it. The same day that happens is the same day I'll put on panties and dance to a Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Rhianna or Pussycat Dolls song. That's how sure I am! You can pick out the song and panties, I don't care!

Well im in New York on Long Island and if you would like I will drive there and not only kick you in the balls, but fight you (I love a good fight) ... if thats what you fancy ... i would love 200 dollas to pay bills.

I'm a man in Mississippi, and I'd kick you in the balls for $200.

Why couldn't I be a New Jersey woman? I could've made a ton of money off of you as many times as you ask this.

You already wear pink panties as seen in the link that follows

Can someone help me with this Sociology Question?!

What is the theory of the social construction of reality? How does it relate to sociological interpretations of culture?

experience is related to how society is arranged/norms & values attached to particular actions.

Berger & Luckmann came up with social constructivism.

cultural variance over time and geographical place demonstrates the arbitrary way our understanding of our environment is derived.

eg. - the death penalty is state sanctioned punishment in the USA and not in the UK; the British, if polled, will tend to be against such a means of punishment, whereas Americans will support it in significantly more numbers

if a college age student girl decides to entertain several men at the same time in a dormitory or fraternity house (commonly called "pulling a train") should we sluff it off as saying, girls will be girls, or should we sluff it off by saying of the male participants, boys will be boys? What about the young men who organise panty raids? What about the young women who throw their panties to the men out of the sorority house windows and dormitories?

NO, that would be a "skanks will be skanks" situation. Man doing panty raids is men acting on their natural basic testosterone/hormonal levels. Everything you describe is typical college behavior.

Personally, I think they are all disrespecting themselves.

Not all girls pull trains...and not all boys join 'em.

The risk of contracting STDs (not to mention pregnancy) that they are inflicting on their bodies is evidence of some deeper emotional issues.

Not to mention just simply being "used" for someone's temporary entertainment and pleasure.

My answer is the same as it was an hour ago. "I am not sure but you must have gone to a very weird college. I have never heard of or participated in such behavior in college. Sure there were parties, but nothing like you have just described. Perhaps it is the only type of college students that you know that act in such a promiscuous behavior." =P

It's more of a "drunken college kids will act like idiots" kind of situation. The panty raid thing is kind of amusing and harmless, but I seriously worry about these stupid kids screwing each other like rabbits, especially when alcohol is involved. Morons.

That girl is being a skank hoe who is desperate for male attention.

Guys will no just be guys. Guys will be horny pigs.

Stating it how it is.

college students will unfortunately be college students?

gonna report to head of students affairs

because girls will still be girls and boys still be boys

i think its humans acting out of their desires without paying much attention to the societal constrains.

The girl is a slut and the men are pigs for going along with it.

Ohh...you mean, "Sluts entertain dumbasses" ???

It will be boys will be this question sucks!

This is a tramps will be tramps situation.

How about "Dummies will be dummies"?
That applies to either gender.

Hoes will be hoes.

U asked this earlier and its still as sh!t as it was then.

what compelled you to ask this?

the more correct saying is people will be people.

i'd say it's more of a "sluts will be sluts" type situation.

It's a girls will be girls situation if the girl isn't drunk. If she is then it's just a party.

yes haha

what

sometimes when im around my friends i love them so much, we have so much fun and i feel happy
but then other times they make me so mad..for no reason at all
its just the things they do and say that make me crazy
one day i like them, next day i dont
whats wrong with me,,,?

Im not sure how old you are but your maturity level might be changing, and if you are older you might be realizing what kind of people you like to be around. But dont let them bug you , live your life the way you want and let them do whatever they like. Keep them around as friends you can hang out with but always do what you think is right.

The question is not "What causes you to behave that way" but "What do you get out of behaving that way?"

Human behavior is not caused, it is chosen...chosen in order to get some result from it, some pay-off. So you need to ask yourself what is the pay-off you seek by being happy one minute and sad the next, etc.

You need to realize that by seeking causes (or saying that other people annoy you, etc.) is giving your power away.

YOU choose to behave as you do. YOU choose to annoy yourself about other people. Life is YOUR choice...not causes, not outside influences...

-- Dr. Bob

it seems as though you are easily irritated or highly strung
its perfectly normal its just how you are some people would say that you have a short fuse i have highly strung tendancies and am very easily irritated but i dont as you describe like my friends one day and dislike them the next so maybe its worth seeing your doctor and speaking to a counsellor its nothing serious but maybe anger management could help you understand this a little more but each person deals with things differently and if feel that you have a problem you should talk to someone but from what you have said it just seems like you are open honesty and irritable thats all i would say x.x.x.

Nothing is wrong with you. This is perfectly normal. Depending on what grade your in depends on how many close friends you have. In Middle School everyone gets along with everyone for the most part. If you're in High School.. that's a different story. You begin realizing who your true friends are and you can still be nice to everyone but those who really mean a lot to you will still be there whether they make you mad every now and then or not. Fights are normal between friends. Nothing's wrong with you.

Nothing is wrong with you.. It's fine to get like that with your friend's sometimes if you hangout with them too much it can get to you.. Maybe just try to hangout either one friend at a time or even hangout with someone new..but keep hanging out with the same friends maybe just not as much for now until it doesn't bother you. You should even tell them sometimes if they really annoy you cause if you don't it might get worse.

hmm. feel like that sometimes, and i have no idea, and i agree its uncomftorable, you just want to like scream at them for no reason and all, and i know this doesn't help you, but I just wanted to tell you youre not alone on that one. maybe you have a lot on your mind? thats when it bothers me... hope i helped

can you help me?

I agree with the "Human Nature" answer. I feel the same way. Sometimes I like to be around a bunch of people and other times everything that everyone does drives me insane, so I prefer to be by myself.

I know exactly what you mean. It's because you're about to get your period or it's just your hormones driving you up and down the wall. This happens to me to and to a lot of other woman. It's normal don't worry about it too much.

maybe you should go and see a counselor, it may have nothing to do with your friends specifically at all. if you are still in highschool...or maybe even gradeschool I guess, you should have a couselor available for you no questions asked.

girl your emotional.listen 2 wot your friends are saying.an think be 4 you speak.4 there could be some hidden truth be tween the lines about you.and learn 2 live 4 the moment.friends bring the best out of you.

nothing is wrong with you you probably just get fustrated by how they annoy you. like its so annoyin tht you cnt take it. O.dddeee anooyence and you juss dont like tht and get mad or fustrated

hormones. some days, they make you really easy to wind up, and sometimes, they make you really tolerable. im just the same. i guess it just depends on how the rest of the day has been for you.

I do the same thing. I'm not sure what it is, but a good cure is to find someone you trust and tell them. Then you see the problem, or you're just making a mountin out of a mole hill

Everyone's like that.
I get frustrated too like you.
I guess it's just natural.. lol

Your just being human!!! We all love our friends but that doesn't mean that they don't get on our nerves. It won't mean we will agree with what they say or do either.

It's ok. It happends to everyone.
You might not be having fun with whatever it is you and your friends are doing then.

It's ok

ur a type of person that cannot stay in one place or that needs to be constantly changing her routine. its ok just dont take it up on ur friends its not their fault u feel this way. try making other friends so u have backups

I am the same, it's just my character. It isn't necessarily anything great, but it's who I am and I accept it.

Maybe you need new friends or you just hang out with them to much.

probually because your always moody

human nature

I dont know your age but it could have something to do with hormones.We all have days that we are not people persons.

That's life!

depends on what time of the month it is

oh my gosh...i can totally relate... its just a teenage thing at least thats what people tell me...btw, u were the same girl who aksed about that guy? go 4 it!!!!!
